A powerful Columbia fencing team beat the varsity 18-9 Saturday at the I.A.B. by almost completely monopolizing the sabre and epee divisions. The Crimson gained some consolation by winning six of the nine foils matches.
Victory in the foils competition was totally unexpected, for the varsity had previously lost this division to Trinity 5-4. Fencing foil for the Crimson against the Light Blue, Cliff Thompson and Hubert Hocutt both contributed two wins.

Columbia was NCAA champion last year and its individual champions returned.
